Pedestrian killed Sunday in hit-and-run accident
A pedestrian crossing Adams Boulevard died in a hit-and-run automobile accident at 1:20 a.m. Sunday.
The victim, «a male between 20 to 30 years old, was not a student at the university.
According to University Security, the vehicle was heading north on Ellendale Place, towards Adams Boulevard. The car then turned left on Adams Boulevard, spun around in a circle and hit the pedestrian crossing the street near the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority house located at 2615 Ellendale Place.
The car was impounded by the Los Angeles Police Department but the legal owner of the vehicle said he was not driving the car at the time of the accident. LAPD is investigating the case.

Reactions ranged from disbelief to outrage to the story (Daily Trojan, Nov. 12) on possible violations of National Collegiate Athletic Association regulations by the university when recruiting football players.
“The allegations are almost laughable,” said John Robinson, head coach of the football team. "There is absolutely no truth at all in the charges."
The process of evaluating whether or not a team recruit is eligible to play is more meticulous than anything else at this university, Robinson added.
The story referred to a file in the office of Jay Berger, director of admissions, which allegedly contains the names of football players possibly recruited in violation of NCAA standards. Two independent sources confirmed the existence of the file and its contents.

GPAs, either calculation of grades from all course work or from academic courses only. Both methods are acceptable under NCAA rules.
Jack Larsen, faculty representative to the NCAA, is responsible for certifying players' eligibility.
“Dr. Jack Larsen is recognized by the committee of the Pac-10 conference and all officials of the NCAA as the most meticulous, thorough, knowledgeable and uncorruptable man on the south side of the world,” said Richard Perry, athletic director.
"They are the most farfetched allegations (I have ever heard)," Perry said. "There is no way in the world they are true."
Perry also said that if the NCAA wants to come in and look at the university, it's fine with him. He is not worried about any effects the allegations will have on the athletic department or the university, but is concerned about people who read about allegations and will automatically believe them.

IRANIAN STUDENTS SPEAK OUT
Khomeini opposition voiced
By Susan Pedersen The Confederation of Iranian Students, a com-
Staff Writer
With a number of Iranian demonstrations across the nation, the public eye has often been focused on pro-Khomeini views. However, some university students feel opposing views need to become better-known.
Three students, who wish to remain anonymous for fear of reprisal, said that the majority of the university's Iranian students do not support the Ayatollah Khomeini. Students in favor of Khomeini are more vocal and thus it appears that they are greater in number, the students said.
munist organization in support of Khomeini, accounts for less than 100 of the 750 Iranian students on campus, but the students interviewed said the confederation accounts for much of the media attention.
An unofficial group called the Iranian Democratic Party is against Khomeini and the deportation of the shah. It is this group which the students feel needs greater recognition.
"If we could get some American support, we could accomplish more," a student said.

The United States is doomed to strategic inferiority in the next decade if military spending remains inadequate, said William Van Cleave, a professor of international relations.
"Assuming SALT passes, I see a very significant growth in Soviet strategic capabilities," he said. "We see the fifth new generation of missiles, improved naval forces, the backfire bomber. We see great strides in civil defense and active defense as well," he said.
The Minuteman missile will be. vulnerable to attack as early as 1982.
Of 41 indexes of strategic military capabilities, all but seven or eight favor the Soviet Union.
"Everyone now acknowledges that the Soviet goal is strategic superiority," he said.
"You've always got to be careful of Soviet efforts and defense capabilities. If the Soviets are determined to destroy our defense capabilities, then we must be equally prepared to meet that threat."
The threat to world security is ' not only rooted in Soviet expansionism, but in impending Soviet economic problems, he said. Middle East dominance in the oil market and Soviet military spending could push the Soviet Union to action.
"My own fear is really with the Middle East, particularly if we believe the CIA report that the Soviet Union will change in the mid-80s from a net exporter to a net importer of oil," Van Cleave said.

National security doesn't have to rely on military preparedness, said Richard K. Ashley, a professor of international relations.
Rather, peace depends on change of attitudes toward world conflicts.
"In my estimation the foremost problem confronting the U.S. today is not a military problem but is the question of how to reshape relations with societies of the world so that recurring conflicts are not seen as military problems/ Ashley said.
